1.3k AP set.

At your budget I suggest Motorola atrix 2 or wait for Sony xperia U / Samsung galaxy ace 2.

QUOTE
is this legit?

Oh sorry my mistake, atrix 1 not atrix 2. But maybe need to top up a wee bit and it might receive ICS a lil late, Q3 maybe...not sure. If want earlier ICS then top up a bit more for atrix 2 or just wait for the 2 I mentioned earlier. smile.gif


Added on March 30, 2012, 10:58 pmWow, just realized that the Huawei Ideos X5 is so cheap now shocking.gif

Vanilla - Fast
Sense - Nice looking but not so fast

Depends on u but I vote for g.nex AP set, at least will get more updates in the future cuz it's a google phone. Ori g.nex is overpriced...

Actually I don't get the One V.  The spec seems mid-range, even DHD/DS/IS can beat it, and ICS is coming to those models.  Other than the double shutter, any reason to get the One V?  Maybe I missed something.  The design looks exactly like Salsa too.
Some comment:
1)  Use at least 3 years?  HTC provides 2 years warranty vs Sony's 1 year.
2)  Sony's design is damn good, but experience with previous SE Android phones suggest that they look good but will take some damage from daily use becos of the hard keys and chrome parts (unless you wrap it up in a TPU case).
3)  Sense and Timescape (I guess Xperia S still using Timescape) are heavily modified Android UI.  You should try to decide which one you like better, some people love them and some hate them.
*
One V will get sense 4.0 officially but I heard DHD/IS/DS will only get sense 3.6 unsure.gif , not that sure.

Uhh, xperia S no more hard keys wor...unless the side buttons are counted..? unsure.gif

QUOTE(straw @ Mar 31 2012, 10:02 AM)
budget RM400 to RM500. Thought to get Samsung Galaxy Y.

Any other model to recommand. Thanks.

SE xperia mini AP set or top up a bit for ori set. If screen to small then Huawei ideos x5, need to top up a bit as well.

Kinda in a dilemma right now. Been eyeing the Xperia S for quite some time, but now with the emergence of the HTC One X, I'm beginning to think again. If price is not a factor, which is the most recommended of the two? I know the One X has a quad core processor but I have a few questions I hope you sifus will help with.

1) Looking to use the phone as a music player, camera and gaming.
2) How much better is quad core in comparison with dual core? I know to many a dual core is sufficient, but I rarely change phones and look to use it for at least 3 years.
3) Build wise I'm loving the Xperia S, but the One X is a looker as well, as looks like it could withstand more punishment.
4) In terms of builtin UI's, I've heard many good things about the Sense, which is why I'm also considering the HTC.

Thanks for input guys
*
1) One X better.

2) Even smoother performance maybe? But since u will use it for 3 years, better go for one X. Who knows next time there's some good stuff that requires quad core to run?

3) This is not a question. laugh.gif

4) Dannyl has answered u.

I vote for one X! thumbup.gif

Guys, do you think it's better to get a used Galaxy S or S plus?
In terms of updating, will S plus be better?
Is it worth it to spend an extra RM100-150 for a used Galaxy Plus?
A used set costs RM800.

Or better top up a bit to get a Galaxy S2 or iphone 4s post paid plan?

Thanks
*
Both also no more other than the value pack update(if I'm not mistaken), then E.O.L edi. The S Plus should be newer with more warranty left right? Then that's a safer choice biggrin.gif

Regarding the package 1, of course it's better if you need the plan. But the contract thing, I'm not sure whether u can pay off all as stated in your earlier post in the other thread. So I suggest u to create a new thread regarding this or call Maxis directly. Since I dun really know much about the package stuff sweat.gif ...

Thanks once again Daniel.

I just found a good seller for Galaxy S but the thing is s/he doesn't have the receipt.
So what other way can I check if it's still under warranty?
I thought when we buy a new phone, we have to register on9 right?
I'm scared to buy if the owner doesn't even know whether it's under warranty or not.

It's the warranty from Samsung that matters more than the shop right (receipt)?
*
Welcome. Ask him/her to check whether the warranty is activated or not by typing PC IMEI(as in the IMEI no. of the phone) and send to 62002 for Maxis/Digi. If not activated then the warranty should start 1 year from the manufacturing date of the phone.

Whoa that's a useful information right there!
I will google tomorrow and study where to get the IMEI number.
But why send to Maxis/Digi? Isn't it supposed to be a warranty under Samsung and not the telco?

What is the seller supposed to receive then from Maxis/Digi?

Thanks once again!
*
It's not send to the telco, it's send to 62002 if u are sending through Maxis/Digi. For Celcom it's 38400 I think. I'm not sure how exactly is the reply like though sad.gif .

The U is still better than ace plus, if u mean ace 2 then it's comparable but the U still edges the ace 2 slightly.

1. Brand. Any

3. Specs. Any
4. What you need in the phone: good battery life, good camera, limitless modding possibilities and customization, vast choice of apps

thx in advance

SE xperia arc / ray / neo / pro or HTC one V. HTC one V will most prob have more custom ROMS whereas the SE's have better camera.

Well, I have never heard of HTC being the fastest in internet speed. sweat.gif Where u heard it?

I suggest u to wait for Sony xperia U or Samsung galaxy ace 2, both got a dual core processor which would help in internet browsing. If can't wait then HTC one V is your best choice.
